Reading Matter for Children.

The wonder grows that children do not
early become mental dyspeptics, with all
that is set before them nowadays in the
way of books. There lis no longer either
any bread and butter and apple sauce diet
or reading for them. The good old fash
ioned times when they ate light suppers
and went to bed with the sun are departed
with the day when a simply bound pic
ture book and a primer furnished them
with reading matter from one Christmas
to another. Stories are served them now
in puff paste and highly seasoned, and
their little brains are surfeited, like their
stomachs, with too much of both litera-
ture and candy. Children were happier
and sweeter-there is no doubt about it
before these days of riotous plenty.
And yet, now and then, we take up "a
book which is neither like puff paste nor
curry powder-~a wholesome work, which
will amuse and instruct at the same
time, and is not too elegantly bound to
interfere with much .haudling.-Chicago

Few men come up to their highest
measure of success. Some fail through
timidity, or lack of nerve. They are un-
willing to take the risks incident to life,
and fail through fear in venturing on or
dinary duties. They lack pluck. Others
fail through imprudence, lack of discre-
ton, care or sound judgment. They
oyerestimate the future and build air cas-
ties, and venture beyond their depth and
fail and fall. Others, again, fail through
lack of application and perseverance.
They begin with good resolves, but soon
get tired of that and want a change,
thinking they can do much better at
something else. Thus they fritter life
away, and succeed at nothing. Others
waste time and money, and fail for want
Of economy. Many fail through ruinous
habits; tobacco, whisky and beer spoil
them for business, drive their best GUS
toners from them, and scatter their pros
poets of success. Some fail for want of
brains, education and fitness for their
calling; they lack a knowledge of human
nature and of the motives that actuate
men. They have not qualified themselves
for their occupation by practical educa-
tion.-School Supplement.

The remnant of the once great Tara
tine tribe of Indians, who live on an isl
and in the Penobscot, twelve miles above
Bangor, Me-, are perhaps more civilized
and adopt more generally the customs of
the white man than any other tribe.
They live in neat dwellings of their own,
farm, work in the woods and drive logs
on the river, earning good wages, and
dress as well or better than many white
laborers. Sometimes the dusky damsels
of the tribe come out in resplendent tog-
gerry, as happened the other night when
there was big wedding on the island.
Joseph Shay and Jennie Coley were the
happy couple, and the bride appeared
radiant in a robe of delicate blue brocade
satin, trimmed with cream Spanish lace
and cream satin ribbons, while one of the
wedding guests wore peacock blue surah
silk and satin, with overdress of Oriental
lace. The wedding reception was fol-
lowed by ball, at which many hand
some costumes were seen.-Chicago Her

A gunpowder has been invented by
Russian chemist, which, if it is as sue
cessful in execution in actual war as it
has been during the experiments, will do
away entirely with heavy artillery. The
explosive is called "Sleetover, - and the
inventor has solved the problem of using
heavy shells without the aid of weighty
guns. Where ordinary powder expands
in all directions, this new compound is
said to expand in only one direction. A
projectile can be sent as far by the use of
the new explosive as by the use of a
heavy gun, gunpowder and guncotton.
In description of the experiment it is
said that the missile was shot from tube
made of card board by the use of the
"Sleetover" without damage to the tube.
This was done to illustrate of what light
materials guns could be made. The office
of war at st. Petersburg has great faith
that the new explosive will be of great
use in time of war. Transportation will
not be hindered by the heavy guns, which
it has been necessary to carry heretofore;
and then, again, the new guns can be
carried to places where the other guns
| could not be carried. 1t is proposed to
make the new guns of aluminium, If
this new invention will do all that is
| claimed for it, complete revolution will
be created in the science of war. 1t will
| be far more preferable than dynamite, as
| It will not be as dangerous to transport.

Gen. Longstreet, of Gainesville, appears
to be in better health than at any time
for the last ten years. Barring the
partial paralysis of his shoulder, caused
by the serious wound he received in
the war, he is as hearty and vigorous
as many men many years younger.
He attributes this Improvement of
his health to the virtues OF mineral
spring he has discovered near his resi-
dence. He says that for some years he
has not dared to take glass of sherry, as
it invariably flew to his toes, and he was
threatened with gout. Since he com
menced using this water these symptoms
have disappeared, and he can now use
wine and eat heartily without experienc-
ing any bad effeets.-Chicago News.

Utilizing an Old Crater.

Auckland, New Zealand, is a lively and

1t is situated near the crater Of large
extinct volcano, which, according to
scientists, may resume active operations

De Lussan can be considered an ideal Marie,
OF whom Dapizetti might we'll he proud.
This character fits her like Il glove; her man
ners, artistic nature and abilities combine
there in happy harmony. 1t could hardly
be considered an eXaggeration to say that her
Marie is the greatest single representation
upon the English opera stage to-day, and that
there is not now singing upon our boards
any one who combines the archnesS of Theo,
the beauty of Patti and the voculism of La
grange, except De Lussan, who is French in
style. English i'll speech and American in
heart. There is hope and promise in her.
She stands out so distinctly above all the
young women in light opera that one is in
clined to prophesy good things for her. The
amusement public are all so wearied of sec
ond-rate hummers in Ii ght opera that an
American girl who can sing, and sing with
all the witchery Of the diva when she was
young, will be a luxury. Next to sterling
American melodrama, new American
singer who doesn't care rap for national
opera, who, is almost an opera in herself
and doesn't look to Theodore Thomas
is what the public has been waiting for.
Right here q word might be said by way of
just comment. A claque of unfriendly per-
sons last night seemed to be determined to
render some one upon the stage uncomforta-
Bile by means of prolonged Kisses whenever
any merited applause was bestowed.
Whatever may be the attitude of
the public and it's members toward
Mr. Foster and his management,
it is certainly unfair that legitimate
artists and art should suffer therefrom. In
deed, it the question of management. even.
entered into consideration of the case, it is
evident that at least the public is indebted to
this same Mr.. Foster for the best performance
of English opera ever witnessed here. The
work of such claques should meet the disap-
probation of every lover of fair play.

stroyer of female virtue, of home and hap
pmess shall forfeit his life." AS an alb
stract proposition the governor of Louis
lana is about right about it. The seducer de-
serves to die violent death. He is an enemy
to society whose foul presence should not be
tolerated on the earth. But there ara
other considerations which Gov. McENERY
and the people of Louisiana overloo k,
They disregard the fact that respect for law
is question of as high Importance to So
ciety as the killing of a seducer. If it is
right that the seducer should die, then the
law ought to make seduction capital Of
Tense. Justice is not justice unless it is
reached through the forms which the law
provides. This is not country governed
by unwritten laws. AS the world pro-
crosses in civilization and social conditions
are elevated, the necessity for Stricter
obedience to the written law becomes more
imperative. However right in the abstract
the Louisiana idea may be. it had better
applica ton in the dark ages than it finds in
our modern civilization.

on the list. raising it above Milwaukee,
Detroit, Cleveland and other cities which
have heretofore lead it. But in addition to
this the showing is still more gratifying
when we compare the increase as compared
with the corresponding week in 1856. The
in crease is nearly 30 per cent, while that
of Boston was less than 90 per cent. and
New Yerk shows all actual decrease of
nearly per cent. Chcago's increase was
only fraction over 81 per cent, while
Philadelphia barely reached per cent.
There are only four other cities which show
greater increase than st. Paul, and two
OF those were due entirely to temporary
causes which are not likely to occur again.
The increase in st. PauPs banking business
has been, all the time. a steady. conserva-
tive growth, and at no time the result of
local booms OF temporary nature. There
is probably no city in the Union whose
finances are on a more solid and durable
basis than st. Paul.

A muddle is no uncommon occurrence in
me politics OF Louisiana, but it so happens
That the Pelican state is just now in the
throes of social and legal middle which
eclipses everything in the muddle line that
has ever befallen the state. 1t all grows
ont of the conviction of man who killed
his wife'S seducer. DR.. FORD. of Shreveport,
one the most prominent citizens of the state,
was abandoned by his wife about year
ago. The woman was victim of the NOR
phine habit and became the paramour of q
druggists clerk. who had been in the habit
OF selling her the poison. The guilty pair
fled 10 New Orleans where they were fol-
lowed by the deserted husband who slew
the spo!ler OF his home and happiness on
sight. When the case came up for trial
the court, contrary to all precedent in
Louisiana, sentenced the doctor to fifteen
years Imprisonment at hard labor i'm the
state penitentary. This action of the court
has produced the most intense excitement

at such a heat the judge who pro-
nouneed the sentence will be fort

case has been appealed to higher tribunal,
and if the finding of the supreme court
shall confirm the sentence pronounced by
the court below. the governor has already
publicly signiied his intention to use the
pardoning power and will set DR.. FORD at
liberty as soon as he gets chance to do so.

\ REPUBLICAN, MISTAKE.

Republican senators are awakng to a
consciousness of the fact that they made a
great mistake in attempting to thwart the
president in his efforts to remove Republi-
IAN Office holders; but the awaking came
90 hate To be OF service to the party. Sem
ItOr- elect FARwELL, of Illinois, is said to
deserve the credit for bringing the Republi-
IAN senators 20 a consciousness of their
oily in this matter Mr.. FARwEIL is a
business man who is thoroughly imbued
With practical IDEAS. After his election to
the United States senate to succeed the late
zen. LOGAN. he went immediately to
Washington and began TO size up the polit-
ical situation on a business basis. He at once
detected that his partisan friends had been
making great mistake in not letting the
president have his way about removals. He
explained to the numbscull senators who
lad been fighting the presidents appoint
ments that they We're helping the Demo
Gratis instead of aiding the Republicans.
His theory was that the Republican policy
should be to encourage the president to turn
every Republican out of office. Most of the
Republicans who hold office were placed
here III consideration of valuable partisan
services rendered in the past. They were
good political Wire-pullers and effective
machine men. According to Mr. FAR
WELL theory they are just the class of
men the Republican party wanted for active
service i'll the next campaign. Now, if
these old reliable party workers are per-
mitted to continue III office under Demo
il ndn i,4,
cannot hope to have the benefit of their
services in the next campaign. With most
of them the question Of bread and meat is a
more vital principle than the success of any
politica! party. The soft Derths they now
enjoy are Of more consequence to their in
dlvidual interests than Republican suprenl-
acy. AS long as they hold Office under
Democratic administration they will either
De active supporters Of the administration
or will remain passive without giving aid to
the Republicans. This is the line of argu-
ment MI FARWELL followed in his efforts
to convert the Republican senators. And
1t is said to have had the proper effect. The
logic of it was so irresistible that some of
the senators felt like kicking themselves for
not having seen it before. They realize
now that if Mr.. CLEVELAND had made a
clean sweep of the oflicehoiders in the be-
ginning of his administration every one of
them would have gone home mad and thirst.
ing for revenge. Thus a grand army of dis
cipliHed partisan workers would have been
secured to the Republican cause. AS it is
they are not doing the Republican party
any good, and some of them have been
converted into enthusiastic supporters OF
The administration.
